Well just got the car back from MOT.. Failed on the springs as I was guessing. So coilovers it is then. Also numberplate light wasn't working and one of the fusebody's(no idea what it is) bolts was loose. Pretty ****ed up but that's life eh.

Also I kind of need the part numbers for the numberplate lights... Maybe the bolts too, I'm guessing they are the nuts on the bottom of the springs since I haven't replaced them(silly me), because we didn't have them yet...

The coilover set is a TA Technix one and costs 199 euros including sending it to the Netherlands... Oh well! :) Probably compatible with the Cupra too so if I ever feel the need for more power I can swap 'em out.

Hoping to have it all on the car and MOT'ed before the 29th of January since there's a Dutch meeting then :rolleyes:

Sorry to hear mate my first MOT on my car i failed on a few things... :(

i dont know what a fuse body bolt is. but the number plate lights are just any 501 wedge bulb... :) Or are you on about the actual plastic lens thingy?
 
fuse body is most likely the fuse board, that screws to the lower dash, screw was probably loose/missing :)
 
Well it doesn't say fuse body.. it actually says fusee body... Fusee apparantly being a Dutch word for something. Made typo in that first post... The word for Fuse is totally different in Dutch lol... But I bet it's one of the lower strut bolts or something...
